Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We are currently testing a weighted review system in Malta and Iceland (excluding hotel and vacation rental chains). For properties in these countries, the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Excellent breakfast selection, both cooked and fresh fruit. Fantastic roof terrace with the best views in Faro, perfect for an afternoon sundowner watching the sunset. Really friendly staff, would recommend this hotel for couples, probably not ideally suited for children, very central location right next to the old town area.

United KingdomAs our flight was early morning I had arranged a takeaway breakfast for the second morning. The reception called my room at 10:15pm the evening before to check the takeaway breakfast requirement. As I was getting up at 3:30am, hence the reason for a takeaway, I had an early night and the call woke me up. The breakfast bag itself was disappointing as it consisted only of a small cheese and ham filled croissant, an apple and a carton of juice.
Amazing choice for breakfast, everything you could want. Staff super friendly and helpful, roof terrace was lovely, room was clean and comfortable. All facilities were well maintained.

CanadaAs usual the air conditioning unit was a bit too noisy. It seems most central air conditioning units in most hotels were not designed to reduce noise thus an annoying hum or sound while sleeping is what one must often anticipate with most hotels.
Supper was very good. Breakfast buffet was a solid OK but the menu never changed. If you purchased breakfast and dinner you received a upgraded menu for supper. Very few clients had opted for the pre-paid supper included thus we received a very good menu offering every evening. Food was above what one might expect because it was NOT a supper buffet offering. Suppers were the highlight of our stay.

United StatesSmelly/moldy room. Management needs to address this anomaly.
Breakfast was excellent and the staff at the breakfast club were all superb. The rooftop setting was a huge plus. Drinks were reasonably priced but the fixed price Dinner was too costly for the limited menu. Room 312 had a moldy smell that resulted in headaches for us. Had to keep the window open for a bit of relief. In addition the safe was locked when we entered the room on April 28. I alerted the front desk the next morning but no action was taken by the time we checked out on Thursday May 1st. Also it’s a misnomer to advertise as a Beach Club when the location to the Beach is not accesible on foot.
